Entry: Libertarians in Heaven Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/blessed_libertarian#13438 Post contents: @Mr. Purcell: Let me ask: does the following citation from your last response mean that you are no longer a Catholic? That's the implication. I wish you would explain this a bit more fully (without wanting to be too officious). <<JP-2: I had to say the Great, at least as the world goes. I find myself bending over backwards to say good things about him because I found his style so profoundly uncongenial. It was during his reign that I left the Roman Catholic Church, with the written permission of the Cardinal Archbishop of New York, given under the authority of the Holy See.>> Pius XII did indeed understand and value the true dignity of men, and he understood that dignity could only be fulfilled if the person accepted the true faith (as he repeated on any number of occasions, most notably in his address "Ci riesce").
